FOREWORDS. 


Tlie  First  Series  of  these  Marriage  Licences,  issued  two  years  ago,  brought 
the  work  to  the  end  of  the  year  1618  ;  this  Series  closes  on  March  24,  1 660-1. 
The  two  series  thus  cover  a  period  of  ninety-three  3'ears,  and  contain  about  18,000 
Marriage  Allegations.  If  the  Allegations  in  this  volume  are  compared  with  those 
in  the  former,  it  will  be  seen  that  they  give  much  more  information,  and  that 
they  are,  consequently,  very  much  longer.  I  could,  it  is  true,  have  made  my 
entries  shorter  by  eliminating  many  details,  but  every  elimination  would  have  meant 
the  suppression  of  some  useful  or  interesting  matter.  I  might,  for  instance,  have 
omitted  all  reference  to  wedding  dinners,  wedding  drinkings,  wedding  courtesies  ; 
the  foul  ways  which  prevented  the  interested  parties  from  getting  to  Canterbury ;  and 
the  reasons  which  induced  persons,  bent  on  matrimon\',  to  prefer  a  particular 
church  in  which  to  be  married.  But  then  1  should  ha^■e  left  all  the  amusement 
out  of  the  book,  and  deprived  my  readers  of  the  good  (and  bad)  stories  it  contains, 
and  so  have  reduced  it  to  a  "  proper "  and  dry-as-dust  condition.  I  might,  too, 
have  omitted  thousands  of  the  "  stray  names  ;  "  but  instead,  and  notwithstanding 
the  labour  involved,  I  have  endeavoured  to  give  the  whole  of  them,  in  the  hope 
that  they  may  add  to  the  usefulness  of  the  work  ;  for  they  frequently  give  a  clue 
to  the  parishes  in  which  families  bearing  the  same  name  may  be  looked  for.  It 
may  also  be  noted  that,  whatever  may  be  the  value  of  the  information  here  given, 
that  information  is  not  limited  to  the  County  of  Kent.  A  reference  to  the  third 
Index  will  show  that  places  as  far  apart  as  Edinburgh  and  the  Isle  of  Wight, 
Lincoln  and  Holland,  and  Bristol  and  Calais,  are  represented,  while  the  references 
to  London  arc  numerous. 

It  is  necessary  to  draw  attention  to  certain  deficiencies  in  this  Series.  In 
June,  1627,  four  pages  of  Allegations  are  missing.  These  pages  probably  contained 
ten  entries  ;  eight  or  nine  of  these  I  have  supplied  from  various  jjarish  registers, 
to  each  one  so  supplied,  I  have  added  a  note.  In  1643  there  is  a  more  serious 
gap,  which  will  be  best  explained  by  giving  William  Somner's  own  account  of  it. 
On  fol.  192,  Vol.  O.,  he  wrote  : — 

"  M"^  that  by  reason  of  the  distraining  and  seizing  of  this  amongst  other 
book's  belonging  to  the  oflice  for  non  payment  of  a  certaine  Sesse  imposed 
on  the  Registers,  by  vertue  of  an  ordinance  of  Parliament,*  the  Licences 
happening  from  and  after  these  last  menc'oned  vntill  the  xiiijth  of  October 

*  The  reader  should  consult  "The  Journals  of  the  House  of  Commons,"  April   14,    1643. 


IV  CANTF.RTiURV     MARRIAGK     LICKNCES. 

then  next  following,  were  entered  and  recorded  in  a  certaine  small  paper  hooke 
made  for  that  pur])ose  and  couered  w*''  ]iarchm*,  wliere  they  may  be  found  by 
the  helpe  of  an  Index  at  the  end  thereof.         W :   Somner." 

The  number  of  Allegations  lost  (so  far)  b}'  this  curious  and  untoward  event  is 
about  seventy,  of  which  I  have  recovered  from  registers  twenty-three.  I  need 
hardly  say  I  have  made  diligent  search  for  the  "  certaine  small  paper  booke  "  in 
every  place  accessible  to  me  ;  but  there  is  one  place  which,  owing  to  my  absence 
from  home  on  the  two  da}-s  in  each  week  on  which  the  Cathedral  Library  is  open, 
I  have  not  searched.  I  refer  to  tlie  room  in  which  William  Somner's  manuscripts 
are  kept. 

In  1640  there  is  another  gap.  The  six  lea\-es  following  leaf  69  of  Vol.  P.  have 
disappeared.  They  were  probably  lost  when  the  volume  was  bound  or  re-bound, 
for  the  edges  of  the  book  have  been  cut.  According  to  the  Index  the  six  leaves 
contained  34  allegations,  ol  which  I  ha\e  recovered  17  from  parish  registers;  that 
is  to  say,  I  have  found  17  marriages  which  followed  the  making  of  the  lost  allega- 
tions. Such  as  I  have  not  succeeded  in  tracing  will  be  found  under  the  names  as 
they  stand  in  the  Index  to  Vol.  P.     {See  Barham  et  Dawson,  col.  60.) 

Then  there  is  the  period  between  July  30,  1646,  and  August  17,  1660.  Here 
there  is  nothing  to  recover,  for  the  simple  reason  that  the  functions  of  Archbishops, 
Archdeacons,  and  Registrars,  as  well  as  the  issue  of  Marriage  Licences,  were 
suspended.  It  is  useless  to  lament  over  what  is  lost :  it  is  well  to  be  thankful  for 
what  we  have  left.  And  surely  we  have  special  reasons  for  being  thankful,  first, 
that  William  Somner  recovered  his  books  from  the  hands  of  the  tax  collector,  and, 
second,  that  Somner,  or  some  person  of  a  like  mind,  managed  to  preserve  the  books 
during  the  perilous  years  1646  to  1660.-'^ 

And  here,  before  I  finally  dismiss  this  list  of  what  is  missing,  I  must  confess 
to  two  omissions  of  my  own,  and  ask  the  reader  to  supply  them,  (i)  To  the 
allegation  made  by  Thomas  [enkcn  of  Westh^'the  (col.  548),  add  "  At  S.  George's, 
Cant."  (2)  To  that  made  by  Thomas  Parramore  of  Waltham  (col.  740),  add  "At 
S.  Martin's,  Cant." 

Of  what  I  may  call  uncommon  Christian  names  but  few  will  be  found  in  this 
volume,  and  of  names  which  may  be  styled  uncouth  fewer  still.  Such  names  as 
Faith,  Hope,  Charity,  Mercy,  Prudence,  Patience,  and  Pleasant,  have  generally  been 
more  or  less  popular,  and  the  Puritans  certainly  had  no  monopoly  of  these,  any 
more  than  they  had  of  the  names  of  Patriarchs,  Prophets,  Evangelists,  Apostles, 
and  other  Biblical  characters.  Now  and  then  a  scriptural  name  certainly  has  an 
odd  look,  but  that  is  about  all.  Of  these  unusual  names  I  quote  the  following  : — 
Abdias  Pownoll,  Abovehope  Sharpie,  Alveridus  Hills,  Appia  Pyend,  Atherie  Straine, 
Avarus  Mount,  Bashia  Sharpie,  Barsheba  Betts,  Bethulia  Pierce,  Booz  Parker  (feyn.), 
Bruno  Disbro,  Cassamera  Mathews,  Dccmos  Goldie,  Egidia  Tasseels,  Elisan  Day, 
Emblem  Wright,  Fortunatus  Gray,  Fortune  Downe,  Freegift  Boorne,  Godly 
*  The  Noncomformists  of  Canterbury  did  not  take  formal  possession  of  the  Cathedral  until  the  sth 

day  of  the  5th  month,  1650.     Sec  Minute  Book,  Guildhall  Street  Chapel,  Canterbury.

I  have  included  Alveridus  in  the  above  list,  as  I  take  it  to  mean  Alberedus  or 
Aluredus,  the  Latin  form  of  Alfred,  aiul  this  is,  I  belie\e,  the  only  instance  in  which 
I  have  met  with  the  name  in  all  my  researches  among  the  parish  registers,  etc.,  of 
Kent  before  the  year  1801.  The  list  includes  the  names  Repent  and  Repentance, 
and  this  induces  me  to  say  a  few  words  on  the  curiously  suggestive  names  which 
were. often  bestowed  on  illegitimate  children.  For  these  the  minister  was,  I  imagine, 
responsible  ;  for  one  mother  brought  such  a  child  to  be  baptized,  and  it  was  named 
Lament.  In  due  course  she  brought  another,  and  that  was  named  Lament.  When 
she  brought  the  third,  the  parson  seems  to  have  given  licr  up,  for  number  three 
was  christened  Tcrtiits.  At  Eastchurch,  in  1578,  Doubtful  and  Lamentable,  both 
base-born,  were  christened;  at  Headcorn,  about  1570,  Creature;  at  Kingsnorth, 
1609,  Strange  ;  at  Marden,  between  1578  and  1624,  there  were  six  Repents,  and  two 
Repentances;  at  Alilton  near  Sittingbourne,  I  find  Lamentation  and.  Repentance  ; 
At  Minster  in  Sheppy,  Desolate  and  Iphtajih  ;  at  Sturry,  between  1604  and  161 1, 
four  children  were  named  Repentance;  and  at  Kingsdown,  on  Dec.  28,  1581,  was 
baptized  "  Liocent  Day,  sone  of  on  (one)  Day."  All  these  children  are  registered 
as  illegitimate. 

The  following,  culled  from  various  sources,  may,  I  think,  be  accepted  as  of 
Puritanic  origin  :— Asgodwill,  son  of  Anthony  Kingesmvll,  Mcar  of  Milton  near 
Sittingbourne  ;  Attained  Smith,  of  Goudhurst ;  Bethankfull  Cunny,  of  iMarden ; 
Careful  Somersall,  sojourner  in  Fairfield ;  Comfort  Tomkins,  of  Lydd  ;  Consider 
Janson,  of  Goudhurst;  Creata  Gooddin,  of  Kennington ;  Living  Goldsmith,  of 
Hinxhill  ;  Faintnot  ^^'ine,  of  Eastwell  ;  Feare  (}od  Butler,  of  Goudhurst;  Fearnot 
Cressid,  ot  Warehorn ;  Forbade  Bates,  of  ]\Llton  near  Sittingbourne ;  Friendless 
Knott,  of  Harbledown  ;  Honour-the  Lord,  son  of  Abraham  Lorde,  of  Kennino-ton: 
Indued  Ellis,  of  ^lilton  near  Sittingbourne  ;  Increased  Collins,  of  Sittingbourne  : 
Joyous  Eaton,  of  S.  ]Mar3-'s  in  Dover ;  Alorebread  Glover  and  Humilitv  Reyner,  of 
Lydd ;  Morefruit  Ersden,  of  [Marden ;  Nazareth  Ramsdeu,  Nazareth  Maplesden, 
Nazareth  Kinker,  Nazareth  Barber,  Nazareth  Sibley,  and  Nazareth  Bathirst,  all  of 
Goudhurst,  between  1603  and  1634;  Renewed  Stevens,  of  ^Nlarden ;  Serajihin 
Markettman,  of  Lydd  ;  Silence  Turner,  of  Faversham  ;  and  Truthanna  Lintut,  of 
Marden.  Hamlet  Page,  Avho  was  buried  at  Harbledown  in  150:;,  must  not  be 
included  in  any  list  of  Puritan  names ;  while  Sufficient,  the  ieulh  daughter  of  John 
Grimston,  Vicar  of  Lyminge,  grimly  suggests  that  the  good  vicar  thought  his  qui\er 
was  full. 

From  1 66 1  to  1700  the  interest  of  these  Canterbury  Allegations  is  well  main- 
tained.    To  bring  them  to  the  end  of  the  year  1700,  three  more  volumes  will   be 


"\"i  CAN"  n-.Kr,rk\    .MARKrA<;K    i,R;i;xci-,s. 

necessary ;  volumt-s  nf)t  so  bulky  as  this,  Init  larger,  I  Icar,  ihan  ilic  first.  After 
1700  the  Alleviations  are  little  nK.ire  than  a  ilr\  list  ot  names.  Useful  to  the 
gene.alogist,  no  doubt,  but  jtresentins'  nothing  of  sufficient  interest  to  induce  a 
l)rivnte  person  to  embark  on  the  wilil  speculatiim  of  printing  them. 

AT}'  best  thanks  are  again  due  to  the  Riglit  ive\erend  the  Lord  i>isli(i]i  of  Dover, 
uiu>,  as  Archdeacon  of  Canterbury,  has,  as  usual,  afforded  me  <-very  facility  for
